Tis' the season for eating and baking, especially in any Italian American household. This year, I got together with my sister Maria, my niece and my mother for some holiday baking. Mostly, my sister is more the aficionado on baking, I like to document with photos and video and lastly decorate the cookies. We tend to make more traditional Italian cookies, along with my mother's variations, where she usually bakes up a honey biscotto. As you can see to the left. This year my sister incorporated her variation of the cookie which we worked on together and was actually not so time consuming, a great traditional Italian cookie.

To accompany a traditional holiday cookie, is a great coffee, as you know we are truly lovers of coffee from our traditional espresso to our cafe Americano, as you know Lavazza is our staple for espresso, so when I was introduced to the newly available concept of drip coffees for Lavazza I was so HAPPY! My favorite coffee is now in drip varieties! This is truly Christmas! I received a wonderful package from the Lavazza team, which included a variety of the new drip coffees and gift cards to make this wonderful batch of Italian Christmas cookies. My family enjoyed these amazing coffees this holiday and I will be using for the rest of the year to make my daily coffee. I hope you enjoy the cookie recipe and Buon Natale! You can shop the new line of drip coffees here http://www.shoplavazza.com/ and it maybe available at your local grocery stores. Don't forget to follow www.twitter.com/LavazzaUSA on Twitter for coffee inspiration, recipes and more.~Buon Natale!
